Tekka market goes online for the very first time!

Due to the coronavirus, many wet market stall owners have been affected. Especially our seniors who enjoyed shopping at the wet markets and also to bargain for the freshest deal that they could find.

So what happens is that the IMDA decided to partner with Tekka market to create a Tekka online market Facebook page for our seniors to be able to purchase the groceries via the Tekka online market Facebook page. The page will be launched on 5th of May 2020 between 12-3.30pm for its first debut and 2nd debut will be on the 12th of May 2020.

This is done for the sake of getting seniors to engage with social interaction via social media and also to be able to purchase fresh items from the wet market.


Here's the link for the facebook page to be able to shop at facebook
